Once in the game, the referee called a timeout and needed a player to toss one last free throw.

The crowd had already been loudly chanting “Let’s go, Lainy!” over and over — who else could possibly take the shot?

So her teammates led Lainy to a nice spot in front of the basket, and she began shooting. After a few misses, you could tell she was getting very close to sinking one.

Then BOOM. Score. And the crowd went nuts.

Lainy even blew a kiss, took a bow and then headed to the sideline to hug a cheerleader as her teammates soon gathered around to congratulate her.Image source: YouTube

“We got her in her spot that we practice in every single day at practice,” Franks told the Oklahoman. “It took a few tries, but she got it down. I just think the people cheering for her, and that kind of sportsmanship in the gym … that’s extraordinary.”

“I love everybody being there, and I just love it,” Lainy told KWTV.

“She came into the locker room crying. Our girls were crying. Our coaches were crying,” Neal added to the Oklahoman. “That’s what it’s all about. It was the perfect moment. I’ve never been a part of anything like that before.”

And with video of her last-second free throw going viral, she told the station she’s well aware of the impact of her heroics: “Because I’m famous.”
